Heart Songs

[Verse 1]

Gordon Lightfoot sang a song about a boat that sank

In the lake at the break of the morning

A cat named Stevens found a faith he could believe in

And Joan Baez, I never listened to too much jazz

But hippie songs could be heard in our pad

Eddie Rabbitt sang about how much he loved a rainy night

ABBA, Devo, Benatar were there the day John Lennon died

Mr. Springsteen said he had a hungry heart

Grover Washington was happy on the day he topped the charts

These are the songs

[Chorus]

These are my heart songs

They never feel wrong

And when I wake for goodness sake

These are the songs I keep singin'

[Verse 2]

Quiet Riot got me started with the bangin' of my head

Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and Slayer taught me how to shred

I gotta admit though, sometimes I would listen to the radio

Debbie Gibson, tell me that you think we're all alone

Michael Jackson's in the mirror, I've gotta have faith if I wanna see clear

Never gonna give you up, wish me love or wishing well

It takes two to make a thing go right, if the Fresh Prince starts a fight

Don't you worry for too long cause you know these are the songs

[Chorus]

These are my heart songs

They never feel wrong

And when I wake for goodness sake

These are the songs I keep singin'

[Bridge]

Back in 1991, I wasn't havin' any fun

'Til my roommate said, "Come on and put a brand new record on"

Had a baby on it, he was naked on it

Then I heard the chords that broke the chains I had upon me

Got together with my bros, in some rehearsal studios

Then we played our first rock show

And watched the fan base start to grow

Signed the deal that gave the dough to make a record of our own

The song come on the radio, now people go, this is the song

[Chorus]

These are my heart songs (These are my songs)

They never feel wrong (Never feel wrong)

And when I wake for goodness sake

These are the songs I keep singing

[Outro]

These are the songs I keep singing (These are my heart songs)

These are the songs I keep singing (They never feel wrong)

These are the songs I keep singing (And when I wake for goodness sake)

These are the songs I keep singing
